Melanie Griffith Movie:

Lolita Reviews:
early production better
2009-10-27 - Melanie Griffeth is a marvelous Lolita. She's the perfect teenager of my generation--bubble gum, spontaneous dancing whenever the spirit moves her, fresh and sassy. Too, Jeremy Irons is the cool, determined pedophile who lets nothing stand in his way. This production is much more convincing than a later movie.

another classic
2009-06-26 - It was okay but, like many classics, its legendary power escapes me in this post-modern era.

One to touch the heart
2009-04-25 - Apart from the violent scenes towards the ending of the film which I felt were over the top, I mean the bit where our emotionally misguided friend shoots the pimp or whatever you want to call him., I enjoyed this movie. I'm sure many will relate to it. Jeremy Irons is good in movies like this. Anyone who has seen "Damage" will no doubt be able to compare a similar role albeit with a woman rather than a girl of 12! However, he is more likely to be remembered for other roles such as his part in "The Mission" with Robert De Niro. Lolita is a sad but enlightening story. This is one to touch the heart and not one you'll easily forget. The soundtrack is good too. hear it!

Very good and memorable film
2009-03-03 - This is a noble stab at screen adaption. The Morricone score is nice, too. One thing I can't understand is why hasn't this version hasn't been released on Blu-ray?!?

One of the greatest love stories ever.
2008-08-11 - This film gets better and better each time I watch it. I never seem to tire of it. It has a fantastic poetic quality that takes it's cues from the novel. One of the greatest love tragedies I have ever come across. Not demon film everyone makes it out to be. A masterpiece in every sense of the word and Lyne's best film.

A must see for anyone who loves a good, honest love tale.
